Water and Related Land Resources Management Study. Volume VIII. Institutional Arrangements.
Abstract
Institutional analysis is a planning procedure developed and adopted by the Corps of Engineers. The procedure consists of three basic steps: an in-depth study of the organizational structure, legal authorities, financial capabilities, and political interdependencies of the institutions in the study area; and analysis of the capabilities of the institutions to plan for and accomplish urban growth, rural development, water supply and wastewater facilities construction, recreational facilities construction, land use control, and the operation and maintenance of facilities; and the development and recommendation of alternative institutional arrangements necessary to implement technical alternatives for the study area. Institutional analysis is an integral part of the Corps' urban study process. The urban study develops alternate ways to solve water and water related problems in the study area. Through institutional analysis, the urban study: determines whether the existing institutions can adopt and implement the recommended alternative solutions, or proposes changes to laws, regulations, and organizations which will enable local decisionmakers to implement the alternatives.
